[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is your question? [/quote]

OP. My question is how do people who can't afford to live in the same school district generally managed a 50/50 schedule?[/quote]

Only one parent needs to be in the school district, you only need one eligible address to keep your kids in the same school.

We are divorcing and selling our single family house in the suburbs. We will then move into one townhome and one condo/apartment in the same area. The kids will stay in the same schools, we will live within a 5 min drive/15 min walk from each other. We discovered that in our little part of NoVa, school boundaries are very specifically drawn, our elem school has no apartments that are zoned to the school for instance. So the one of us who wants a condo/apartment for personal reasons wont live in the school district but will still be very close.

Our custody agreement is 50/50 but I imagine it will end up closer to at least 60/40 in reality. Even with living so close.

I would rather have a very tight budget and live as close as possible to my kids than live 25 mins from them. Im sorry your ex wife had to make that decision.[/quote]
